Two hundred years ago, on January 7, was born John Carroll, who was destined to be- come one of America's greatest patriots and to play an important part in the drama of American inde- pendence. His 80 years of service to God and country were crowded with activities, but this evening we are pay- ing special tribute to him as the founder of this great institution. A man of broad vision, he has left an indelible imprint on this university.” Officials Watch.

They are institutions whose very existence has been built upon public acceptance of the modes the}f advance. The NAME on the label of their products is the seal of QUAL- ITY, STYLE and VALUE.

The Company expects to pay off the latter in 1935 out of its own funds. The net increase in the investment in road and equipment for the entire System was $37,672,536. IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM Electrification for passenger service between New York and Washington was completed early in 1935. It isex- pected that the entire project will be com- leted and in full operation during 1935. his will include through electrical freight operation from the New York terminals to Potomac Yard, south of Washington, electrification of large freight yards, several branches and con- necting freight lines and related im- ovement work between New York, gu-delph;a, Baltimore and Washington. The completed work embracing 1405 miles of track electrified for both pas- senger and freight service will provide the most modern means of transporta- tion to the populous and steadily growing metropolitan areas in the ter- ritory along the middle Atlantic sea- board and for the through traffic between the South and New England. It represents approximately 45,000,000 man hours of employment on the railroad and in the supply industries and the ex- penditure of many millions of dollars for the products of American industries. During 1934 progress continued on improvement projects in Philadelphia, Newark, Baltimore and Chicago while | important additions and betterments were completed or progressed at other points. - NEW AND IMPROVED EQUIPMENT Ten electric switching engines and one | electric passenger locomotive were | received and placed in service, and two experimental electric passenger loco- motives were delivered.

Of these §7 are of a new streamline design for passenger service, the most powerful of their kind ever built, capable of main- taining a regular operating speed of go miles per hour with trains of standard | size and weight. The Company buile | 7.000 new freight cars at its own shops | and purchased 99,965 tons of steel rail. | 4% cars for passenger service were cone verted for electric operation in multiple unit electric trains in suburban service. Air conditioning was installed in 30 additional dining cars and 79 additional coaches. BETTER SERVICE High speed passenger service was still further improved by more convenient schedules and greater comfort and the running time of a number of important trains between Chicago, St. Louis, Detroit, Cleveland and the East. An additional fast train, the “Fort Dear- born," was placed in service between | Chicago, Philadelphia and New York. More comfortable service on through trains between the principal cities of East and West was provided during the summer by air-conditioned coaches, din ing cars and Pullman cars which suppler mented similar equipment in service on all trains between New York, Philadel- phia and Washington. The Company operated approximately 700 such cars, the world's largest fleet of air-conditioned equipment. The Company's regularly scheduled freight trains continued to maintain a record of fast dependable transportation. Collection and delivery service of lesss than-carload freight, inaugurated ex- perimentally on December 1, 1933, has proved so satisfactory and increasingly popular, that it has now become a per- - manent feature of the service. EMPLOYES WAGES During the year the railroads of the country, including this Company, entered into an agreement with the employes as the result of procedure provided for in the Railway Labor Act, under which 2%, of the 10% deduction in wages (which had been in effect since February 1, 1932) was restored on July 1, 1934 and 2%% on anuary 1, 1935.
